Rules and Etiquette:
As Bare as You Dare: Clothing optional – wear as much or as little as you like. Anything from body paint, costumes, to underwear are encouraged.
Stay Safe: This is not intended to be an arrestable action. Cruise in style by obeying traffic laws and heeding the wisdom of our ride captains.
Sanitary Practice: If you're using rideshare services like Citibike, it is required to wear underpants or shorts for hygiene purposes.
Video and Photography: This is a public event and we’ll be riding in public spaces. Nudity and skin are part of the plan to accentuate the point of our vulnerability in the face of vehicles on the road and their emissions. If you prefer anonymity, consider wearing a costume or COVID mask, because the cameras will come out.
Show Respect: Keep the good vibes flowin' by treating fellow riders and spectators with the utmost respect. This gig is all about love and unity. Any uncool behavior or harassment won't fly.
Consent: It's crucial to respect people's privacy and boundaries. This means refraining from unwanted physical contact. If you witness someone behaving rudely or inappropriately, check in with the potential victim and offer assistance. If you find yourself in an uncomfortable situation, communicate directly with the person involved, and if necessary, seek help from someone nearby by informing them of the situation and the behavior that is making you uncomfortable.
Leave No Trace: Dispose of trash properly and show the environment some love.
